JOHN LOGUIRATO

John LoGuirato "Cuz" as he was known by many was taken to our Lord on Thursday, November 28, 2013 at Orange Regional Medical Center. He was 81.

John was born in Canarsie, Brooklyn on July 18, 1932 but lived at his home on Brimstone Hill Rd for the last 20 yrs. He loved it there but you can never remove the "Brooklyn" from him. He was Mr. Brooklyn.

Cuz served his country in the U.S. Air Force and played baseball with the Air Force Team in the 1950's. Cuz was also a Golden Glove Boxer. He was a Partner and Co Owner of Beacon Auto Salvage and he and his son raced horses at Monticello Raceway.

John also was a longtime patron of the Cup and Saucer Diner. He was an avid baseball fan and loved the Brooklyn Dodgers and the NY Mets. Everyone who knew Cuz will always remember his smile no matter how much pain he was in. He always said he was fine and smiled and would always do anything for anyone if he could. To know Cuz was to love him. He will always be loved and missed. Rest in Peace.

John is survived by one son, two daughters, three granddaughters, two great grandchildren, and his very special best friend, Brenda Olwell. John was predeceased by one son, two sisters, and two brothers.

A Memorial Mass will be offered on Saturday, December 14, 2013 at 1 p.m. at the Church of the Infant Saviour with Fr. Kevin Gallagher officiating.

Donations in Johns name can be made to the Church of the Infant Saviour Building Fund, 22 Holland Ave, Pine Bush, NY 12566.
